AKA "Stuyvesant Town" or "Peter Cooper Village."
A neighborhood located in the Upper East Village, stretching from First Avenue to Avenue C, between 14th and 23rd Streets, and consisting of (somewhat) rent stabilized housing projects where teachers and students alike live. Most inhabitants educate them at UNIS, but there are many exceptions. Most
people are
hipster and the lingo consists of "
Sup, bro?" and other classified "G-Talk". They have money to live in other places but
like the location near Union
Square to meet up with other hipsters and scenesters. Rent is skyrocketing as the establishment is in huge debt and kids going on the roofs have become so much of a problem that they have installed ID-Card security systems.
"Sup bro?"
"Nawt much."
"Let's hang out in Union
Square."
"Yeaa man, we hop on that emos and take em back to Stuy Town."
"Damn, I've been overpaying for years, good thing I sued."
"Yeah you almost put yourself out in the
street by doing that, and you're
lucky Tishman bought it."
"Nauw man."
